umbrella; If you click on the ‘Function’ heading in the Theatre Guide (above left), it will bring up 103 (to date) former cinema buildings listed on this site that are currently in use as bingo clubs. There are of course many more, where bingo has now ceased and the buildings are in other uses, such as bars, nightclubs, churches or even just listed as ‘Unknown’ if the property is currently not used for anything.
If anyone knows any more cinema to bingo hall conversions will could u please message me at www.myspace.com/umbrellaheyheyhey, it would help me massively

The Albert is still standing althought the bingo operators Walkers have now closed it. Until the conversion to bingo the cinema was used by the two local operatic societies for stage productions- prior to the opening of the (less superior) Civic hall/theatre further down the street. I believe the auditorium is pretty much intact.
is this cinema still standing empty or has it now been converted? Does anyone know it’s current condition or the owners of the building please.
thanks
